Last week's bitter cold and snow has turned to milder temperatures and a strange big yellow ball in the sky that emits heat! What is that thing? THE SUN, at last!! As the weather moves in a new direction, so does my crafting. The cross-stitch has been seen in months and felt crafting has taken over. Even the doll clothes and the sock knitting have taken a back seat to this obsessive little venture.

Last year it was donuts. The past few weeks I am on to Swiss Roll Cakes. The Japanese seem to have cornered the market on amazing books on this topic. Some of the sweets I recognize and some are native Japanese and I have no idea what they are.

They are completed with the proper icing, sprinkles, nuts, whipped cream and candies and are set up in my ,Etsy shop
